Liquor`s my lover — текст песни (Furnaceface)

Well, the doctor came callin`, he said, Tom, lemme in.
You`re long overdue for an examinin`.
You`re pale and you`re sickly and ugly as sin.
I pulled up a chair and I poured him a gin

CHORUS:
Liquor`s my lover and I want it that way
I don`t need no other, there`s no woman for me
Yeah, liquor`s my lover, all my women have depart(ed)
and it may harm my liver but it won`t break my heart

Well, I`m warnin` ya, Tom, that old doctor said,
You better stop drinkin`, you need a clear head.
Half o` ya`s dyin`, the other half`s dead.
You better find a good woman `cause you`re drinkin` to death.

THE ELECTRIC GUITAR STEPS FORWARD.

So I went to a preacher and I told him I`d sinned
`cause the day that she left me, well, I hit the gin
He said the old bottle would soon do me in
but I`m gettin` used to the shape that I`m in

Well, I should have listened to their good advice
`cause I kept on drinkin` and I died that night
St. Peter stepped forward when I rang his bell
He said, Slo` Tom, there`s no liquor in heaven,
so I went straight to
liquor`s my lover and I want it that way...
